Xavier University to reopen Tuesday after Isaac hiatus

Xavier University will reopen Tuesday, Sept. 4, for normal operation after Hurricane Isaac forced it to close for a week, the school said in a statement released Monday morning. "Power has now been restored across the entire campus and maintenance crews continue to work hard to ensure that residence halls, classrooms, labs and offices are optimally ready for the University's re-opening," the statement said.
